COLLECTIVE

ABOUT COLLECTIVE

COLLECTIVE Studio is an architecture and design office. We are headquartered in Hong Kong, with teams in Perth, Madrid and London.

Founded by Betty Ng in 2015, she co-directs COLLECTIVE with Harvard classmates Chi Yan Chan and Juan Minguez. The directors at COLLECTIVE have previously practiced at Pritzker Prize winning studios of Rem Koolhaas/OMA and Herzog & de Meuron, leading projects internationally in directorship and senior positions.

COLLECTIVE is a research and concept driven practice that offers strong narratives that insist on Clarity and Function, with Beauty as a consequence. We design projects in all scales, from urban design, buildings, landscapes, interiors, exhibitions, art installations, displays and furniture.

COLLECTIVE remains globally oriented while strongly rooted in Asia. We are currently supported by a diverse team with an intercontinental background of various nationalities.

COLLECTIVE practices Design as a Methodology, instead of a Style. We offer a diverse portfolio of work, eager to work with new typologies with our expertise in Design, avoiding repetitive aesthetic approaches.

COLLECTIVE focuses not on a single creator but as a Collective of Critics. Building on the convergence of diverse merits and practices, we engage projects with the team’s wide spectrum of international expertise and local sensitivities, along with our collaborators and clients worldwide in various disciplines, challenging the status quo of the “named” architecture offices.

COLLECTIVE is a RIBA UK Chartered Practice and a member of The Association of Architectural Practices in Hong Kong.
